Cool little job. Wonder what output power it has. Could be ideal for speakerless boards in smallish rooms.

The wattage in RMS is 150, not 300 - still a lot.

Forget the specs....No sense wondering until you play thru it with your Gear I say! keys

The 150 watts RMS are definitely more meaningful than 300 W peak. I can't order and try everything, so some specs are helpful to sort out what to test and what not. In this case I think I prefer waiting for others to test it... A pair of FBT J5a have a similar ratio (240 watt RMS with 16 pounds), I would rather test them as I know their predessesors.

Eric, yes, that's where I found the weight where it says product weight - 11lbs.

Gary cool

Must be...everyone is getting older. We all want smaller/lighter and lots of horsepower.

So, when is that 11 lb. 61 key arranger coming out...a good one that is?

The Roland BK-5 is not much heavier but the BK-3 and the Korg MicroArranger are on the cusp.

You're right, Cassp, but have you noticed that just about everyone on this forum that purchased either of those boards quickly either discontinued their usage, or sold them. I'll stick with my S-950 - all 23 pounds of it, at least till I completely retire from this business, which will likely be about three days after I'm dead! wink

Sorry Gary,
I am getting old too... wink
I saw Don's question, but read your name.
Somehow my brain combined the two...
When I went back later to read some replies, I saw yours, but it was to late to edit mine... wink
